Default Question about FRC and Strut Tower Brace

with the strut tower brace already installed, will the Fuel Rail Covers fit under it? i have a LG MotorSports Strut tower brace with three points: left, right and in the middle,,, so i really rather not take off the strut tower brace becuase of the center bolts. can the FRC be installed with the strut tower still installed?

thanks

Not likely!
They can be hard enough without the STB in place

I have the Hotchkis STB and I have to remove it to install and take out my FRCs. Just no way to do with the STB in without damaging the FRCs.

I have the Hotchkis STB and I don't have to remove it to install FRCs.....I even removed my coil packs and valve covers with the STB on <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />

my driver side frc rubs my BMR STB. And I take the STB off to take off the frc's, but it's only 4 bolts, so it's easy.

I hate taking off my Hotchkis STB. I put my FRC's on without removing it. I have to bend the **** out of them though. They are no worse for the wear which is surprising. I plan on getting some nice FRC's so I don't really care about the condition they are in.
